ZANE fights Cholera
ZANE staff in the Fight against Cholera in Zimbabwe
UN statistics state that cholera has killed at least 565 people in Zimbabwe since August. The Zimbabwe government has now asked for international help to fight the disease.
ZANE medical staff are working to treat cholera victims and alleviate the suffering that is caused.
A ZANE doctor writes
"We are doing well, growing stronger despite all the chaos around us…
I am currently working in the cholera wards in the Infectious Diseases hospital in Harare, It is absolute chaos an incredibly heartbreaking work …
The team is doing well in Harare, Bulawayo and the other areas, but I sense a great weariness…"
As well as treating cholera sufferers, ZANE are involved in running educational and community programmes to help people to avoid infections and live sustainable lifestyles. Please make a donation to help ZANE fight cholera by clicking here.
